     Actually the plastic container can only handle one level
of drives and presently I have 3 flat liners 10 drives each
in the box with another 10 or so spread out about the
sides.  I will be turning the tray that would not stack
into cushions for the loose Flash Drives.
     So I think I will have to be satisfied as the new
bag is not roomy enough for more than one of these
plastic containers If I could find the right materials
which I used to see in camera stores and was a foam
cushion sliced into fingers within a rigid case to hold
small items.
